You are really such a great digital camera fix-man and genius, I have to say. To be honest, I have impressed your blog the first time you helped me fix my Canon camera lens errors a year ago. But keep in mind that formatting the card (after you've tried to save/backup/recover the files) should prevent this from happening again. There's nothing that you can do in that case. This is because the write process may have been interrupted or stopped, for whatever reason, preventing saving of the entire file. Just tell me your model, and I'll tell you exactly where you can find it.įinally, keep in mind that some of these individual corrupted photos once recovered may only be partial photos (bottom part of photo may be cropped off). That option is there, usually in the "Settings" menu, just below the "Reset" option. After recovering the photos, then format the card in your camera to prevent this from happening again. If an old card reader was the problem, SKIP formatting the card for now, and attempt to recover your photos directly using the USB card reader. Try an search for "USB SDHC card reader". In that case, just purchase an inexpensive USB SDHC card reader (they're only a few dollars). Have you ever been able to read this card in that reader before? If this is the first time you've tried to use that reader, and your computer is more than a few years old, chances are that it can only read standard SD cards (2GB or less). The second thing I can think of is that the card may be a 4GB or higher SDHC card, and your computer's reader may be too old to recognize SDHC format. Could you first check to make sure that it's in the upward "unlocked" position (toward the terminals)? The first is that you may have accidentally placed the tiny write switch on the side of the SD card in the locked position. There's two possible causes that may be preventing the quick format. If the card reader doesn't recognize your card, and your computer is more than a couple years old, see below about purchasing a USB card reader.īut if all of the above has been tried, then give the computer quick format one more try. If you couldn't do it directly by attaching your camera to your computer, you should use your computer's card reader.
Wanted to make sure that the first thing that you have tried to do, is to save and back up whatever files/photos that you have on that card onto your computer. I hope my answer can be of some help to you. Note: quick format won’t be necessary to erase all data.įor option 3: take the hard drive out of your computer and connect it to another computer to perform data backup. And re-use data recovery apps to see if you can recover the pictures. If you have nothing to harvest, then format the flash drive (under Disk Management, better not use third-party formatting tools). First I’ll suggestion you give a try one of the data recovery programs suggested in the post above like Recuva or Pandora Recovery etc. Once you lose it, you lose everything insides.įor Option 2: There are many possible reasons may lead to flash drive bad (or corruption we can say), but it’s highly possible for you to recover pictures insides. This is John, a fan of the blog :) I read your problems carefully and hope I can do something to help.įor Option 1: Sorry, the only way is to find the pictures is by getting the memory card back as those pictures should be stored on the card.
